AMIA celebrates its 20th year by joining with our international colleagues at IASA in our first joint conference!

The audiovisual collections of the world have grown in response to the varied needs of their collectors, creators and users, reflecting the diversity of their owners, curators and managers. While there is much about sound and moving image archives that is unique and specific to format, there is an even greater range of issues and concerns that we all share in common.

The IASA/AMIA Conference will be a forum to discuss where convergence is possible, to communicate standards and to share mutual solutions and opportunities. It is a unique opportunity to bring together a broad range of audiovisual colleages from around the world.

The conference will offer four parallel session tracks, two on typically AMIA-issues, one on typically IASA-issues, and one with subjects of common interest (attendees from both AMIA and IASA will be free to attend all sessions).
